HEADS OF INCOME (Sec 14) (A) Introduction After determining the scope of income i.e. what is to be included and excluded, the next step is to classify the income under different heads. This is necessary because the rules for computing income under each head are different (B) Provision: Section 14 of the income tax Act states that “ all incomes shall,for the purposes of charge of income tax and computation of total income, be classified under the following heads of income” I Salaries II Income from House Properties III Profit & Gains of Business or Profession IV Capital Gains V Income From Other Sources (C) Importance of Different Heads It is said that “ Section14 provides the basis of charge on total income, Section 5 defines its scope, Section 14 classifies the total income under different heads and Section 15 to 59 quantify the amount of total income” thus section 15 to 59 states the specific rules of computation under each head so as to determine the amount of income under each head (D) Heads are Mutually Exclusive It should be noted that the heads of income are mutually exclusive. Where an item of income falls under one head, it has to be charged under that head and not other, for e.g. if the income is taxable as income from house property, its has to be taxed under that head only, and cannot be taxed as Say Income from other sources

(E) Heads are Different But Tax is One i.e. Income Tax The different heads of income do not make different kinds of taxes. The tax is always one, but the income may arise from different sources to which different rules of computation are applied. Section 14 classifies the income under different heads only for providing appropriate rules of computation (F) Gross Total Income = Total Income From All Sources Computed Under Different Heads The classification of income under different heads is with reference to the” source” of Income. Income generally arises from several “sources” such as employment, house property, investments, business and so on For the same head of income, there can be more than one source of income for e.g. In Income from House property there are two sources i.e. Income from SOP and Income from LOP. Income from each source is computed as per the rules of computation provided for the relevant head Finally Income under all the five heads will be added together and such income is called the Gross Total Income of the assessee during that previous year The amount of such disallowable expenses is determined on the basis of the method to be prescribed by the CBDT (central board of Direct Taxes)

HEADS OF INCOME INCOME FROM SALARY

(A) Introduction: Salary means any payment made at regular intervals for services rendered. If any person renders personal services as per any contract of employment, the remuneration received by him is known as Salary Section 15,16 and 17 of Income tax Act, 1961 deals with computation of income under the head salaries (B) Section 15 Incomes taxable under the head Salaries Following income shall be chargeable to income tax under the head salaries 1) Due Basis: Any salary due from an employer or a former employer to an assessee in the previous year whether paid or not 2) Receipt Basis Any salary paid or allowed to him in the previous year by or on behalf of an employer or a former employer. Whether due or not 3) Arrears Any arrears of salary paid or allowed to him in the previous year by or on behalf of an employer or a former employer if not charged to income tax in an earlier previous year 4) Important Notes regarding Salaries 1) Advance salary If advance salary is paid, it is taxed on receipt basis and it will not be taxed on accrual basis 2) Relationship of employer and employee There Must be relationship of employer and employee between the payer and the payee. If the relationship of employer and employee doesn’t exist between the payer and the payee, amount received by the payee cannot be treated as salary. Thus for example i) Examiner ship fees received by a college professor from his college is salary. However the examiner ship fees received by the same professor from the university is not salary because university is not the employer. The main point is that what is not received from employer cannot be termed as salary 3) Salary from more than one source If an individual receives salary from more than one employer during the same previous year, salary from each source is taxable under the head salaries. For e.g. if a clerk works with two employers on parttime basis, salary from both the employers will be charged to tax under the head salaries 4) No Distinction Between Salary and wages Ordinarily, wages are remuneration paid for manual work and salary is remuneration paid for white collar jobs (non manual work) However income tax act makes no distinction between salary and wages. Both are taxable under the head Salaries 5) Taxability Salary is chargeable to tax either on due or receipt basis whichever is earlier. However there should not be double taxation of the same salary 6) Nature of Employer The Employer may be government, a local authority, a company, a firm or an individual etc. Moreover, every remuneration received during the year is taxable irrespective of the fact whether it is received from a former, present or prospective employer

DIRECT TAXES IPage 5

Prof Kunal S ChandikaT.Y.B.Com(A&F)OM SAI RAM 7) Remuneration of a Partner Any Salary, Bonus, commission or remuneration, due to or received by a partner of a firm from the firm is not regarded as salaries under this section. The same is to be taxed as Profit and Gains of Business or Profession 8) Voluntary Payments Salary, perquisites or allowances may be given as a gift to an employee, yet would be taxable. The Act does not make any difference between gratuitous payment and contractual payment 9) Salary, Income must be real and not fictitious Amount taxable under the head salaries should be real salary and not fictitious salary 10) Salary Paid Tax Free If Salary is paid tax free by the employer, the employee has to include in his taxable income not only salary received but also amount of tax paid by the employer. It does not make any difference whether tax is paid under terms of contract by the employer or voluntarily 11) Grossing up of Salary Whenever the amount of net salary is given, then we have to add back all the deductions made from the salary by the employer on various accounts like contribution to provident funds, income tax deducted at source, profession tax, installment for repayment of loan so as to arrive at gross salary income. This is because income tax is levied on gross salary income. This process of ascertaining gross salary income from net salary is called as Grossing up of Salary (C) DEDUCTION FROM SALARY INCOME U/S 16 Section 16 lays down the following deductions which are allowable while computing the income under the head Salaries i) Standard Deduction u/s 16(i) (omitted by financial Act 2005 w.e.f. 1.4.2006) ii) Entertainment allowance u/s 16(ii) iii) Professional Tax u/s 16(ii)

i)

Entertainment Allowance (Section 16(iii) a) Only to Govt Employee Entertainment allowance is initially included in Gross Taxable Salary. Thereafter Section 16(ii) allows a deduction from salaries only to Government employees to the least of the following i) 1/5th of Basic Salary ii) Rs 5,000 iii) Amount of entertainment allowance actually received b) Non Govt Employee A Non Government employee is not entitled to any deduction from entertainment allowance c) Basic Salary Basic Salary above would include Dearness Allowance (it itform part of Salary) but excludes bonus, allowances, benefits and perquisites. However if remuneration is by way commission the same has to be taken into account

DIRECT TAXES IPage 6

Prof Kunal S ChandikaT.Y.B.Com(A&F)OM SAI RAM d) Irrespective of Actual Expenses The Deduction is allowed for the entertainment allowance as such irrespective of the actual amount spent on entertainment by the employees ii)

Professional Tax or Tax on Employment ( Section 16(iii)) Professional Tax or tax on employment levied by a state under the article 276 of the constitution is allowed as deduction The Following two point should be noted in this regarda) Deduction is available only in the year in which professional tax is paid b) If the professional tax is paid by the employer on behalf of employee it is first included in the salary of the employee as a perquisites (since it is an obligation of the employee discharged by the employer, it is taxable whether the employee is the specified employee or not) and then the same amount is allowed as deduction on account of professional tax from gross salary
